Pop star Rihanna was left furious during her gig in Manchester on Tuesday night when fans started pelting her with food.

The singer took to the stage at the city’s M.E.N Arena as part of her Diamonds world tour, but was forced to stop the show after her performance of “Rude Boy” as several revelers began hurling snacks.

The singer told the audience, “This is next level, there is a good crazy and there is a bad crazy, but when you throw [bleep] up here, that’s an epic fail. I swear to God, cut that [bleep] out. Really? Chips? Chips, though – it’s that important? Ok Manchester, for those of you who want to (get) jiggy and have a good [bleep] time, say my name!”

Rihanna is not the only superstar to scold her fans during a recent concert. Beyonce chastised a gig-goer at a show in Atlanta last week for filming her on a cell phone instead of singing along to her track “Irreplaceable.”

Rihanna has aimed a scathing rant at a U.K. newspaper columnist who labeled the singer a “poisonous pop princess” and a “toxic” role model for young fans. The singer is fuming after reading an article …

The singer is fuming after reading an article by writer Liz Jones, published in Britain’s Daily Mail on Tuesday, which featured the tag line “Pop’s poisonous princess: Glorying in drugs, guns and sleaze, Rihanna’s toxic role model for her army of young fans.”

The feature accused Rihanna of setting a bad example with her saucy dress sense and racy dance routines, and also published pictures of her brandishing what appear to be two giant marijuana joints during a trip to Amsterdam last week.

Rihanna has now expressed her anger over the article and fired back at the author in a furious online rant.

In a post on Instagram, Rihanna writes, “If you sincerely wanna (sic) help little girls more than their own parents do, here’s a toxic tip: don’t be amateur with your articles, you sound bitter! … That [bleep] ain’t journalism! That’s a sad sloppy menopausal mess!!! Nobody over here acts like they’re perfect! I don’t pretend that I’m like you, I just live … My life!! And I don’t know why y’all (sic) still act so surprised by any of it!!”

Rihanna goes on to insist she has never intended to be a role model for young girls, adding, “Role Model is not a position or title that I have ever campaigned for, so chill wit dat (with that)! I got my own [bleep] up [bleep] to work on, I’ll never portray that as perfect, but for right now it’s me!! Call it what ya (sic) want!! Toxic was cute, Poisonous Pop Princess had a nice ring to it, just a lil (sic) wordy!”

Pop star Rihanna has courted controversy by posting pictures of herself posing
with what appears to be two giant marijuana joints during a trip to Amsterdam.

The “Umbrella” singer jetted into the city to perform as part of her ongoing world tour, and on Saturday night she headed out to enjoy the city’s famous nightlife.

Rihanna detailed her night in a series of posts on Twitter and Instagram, publishing pictures which appear to show her in a cafe holding two massive joints in her mouth and lighters in her hands, along with the caption, “I’m just a girl… Amsterdam.”

Another image appears to show Rihanna smoking weed in her hotel room with the words, “Legalise it”, while another snap shows one of the star’s friends puffing on a bong.

Miley Cyrus new single, “We Can’t Stop,” was originally intended for Rihanna, according to producer Mike Will Made-It.

The hitmaker, who previously crafted tracks for rappers 2 Chainz and Juicy J, reveals the song was one of two club tracks he had lined up for Rihanna while working on her 2012 release, “Unapologetic.”

He tells MTV News, “When I originally worked on ‘We Can’t Stop,’ we had did it for Rihanna. The idea was more towards Rihanna. Rihanna, she heard Pour It Up right away, and she didn’t even hear We Can’t Stop.”

He then presented the track to label bosses at Sony Music, who believed it was “perfect” for Cyrus’ next album – and the former child star has since injected her own attitude to make the single her own.

Mike Will Made-It says, “They played it for her, she liked it… We went in (to the studio), she nailed the record, and she did it with her swag. So it sounds totally different than from what we originally tried to come up with.”

This could be why some music critics have suggested Cyrus’ new track sounds like a Rihanna tune.

Rihanna gave one male fan a night to remember on Thursday after inviting him up onstage for a racy lap dance during her concert in Belgium.

The R&B beauty turned up the heat at her Antwerp show by plucking one unsuspecting man from the audience to join her during her rendition of raunchy ballad Skin, dominating him as she pushed him on his back and straddled him.

Wearing a kinky black bodysuit, the singer then began gyrating seductively against his groin and even grabbed his left hand and pressed it against her chest, much to the crowd’s delight.

Rihanna is no stranger to sexy antics onstage – in 2011, she famously pulled a female fan into the spotlight at a gig in Miami, Florida and writhed her body against the excited devotee’s.

Rihanna lived out a fashion fan’s dream on Tuesday after she was treated to a tour of legendary designer Coco Chanel’s Paris home.

The R&B beauty documented the outing by sharing photos with fans on Twitter.com, including shots of her on the Chanel founder’s couch with the label’s costume jewelry and accessories designer Laetitia Crahay, and another of the singer posing on the icon’s mirrored staircase.

In a tweet on Wednesday, she writes, “Got the keys to CoCoChanels apartment!!! Yesterday=Most Legendary day in Paris!!!!”

Chanel bosses marked the end of the tour by presenting the Umbrella hitmaker with a small yellow handbag as a special gift.

R&B star Chris Brown has opened up about his latest split from on/off girlfriend Rihanna, blaming their busy work schedules and his reluctance to settle down for pushing them apart.

Rumors began surfacing online last month suggesting the singers, who began dating again last year, had parted ways once more after the “Umbrella” beauty shared her mixed feelings about love during a concert in Los Angeles.

She told fans, “How many of you are in love? How many of you hate love? How many of you don’t f– understand it? I’m in that group. The confused group.”

Now Brown has confirmed that he and Rihanna are taking a break from their renewed relationship, admitting he’s not yet ready to settle down.

The “Kiss Kiss” star came clean about the status of his love life during a recent Australian radio interview when he was asked if Rihanna would be joining in his multiple birthday celebrations to mark turning 24 on Sunday.

Discussing his big plans, he said, “I’ve actually got three birthday parties scheduled, I (sic) got one in L.A., one in Vegas and one in New York so we can go and have fun, and I’m just trying to have, you know, the best time with my fans and all the people in the club.”

He then added, “Imma (sic) do it solo… I mean, at the end of the day, (Rihanna is) doing her own thang, she on the road (sic). It’s always gonna be love. I’m a grown man, just gotta fast forward…

“I’m always gonna love that person. I can’t be focused on wife-ing (sic) someone that young. I need to be the best Chris Brown I can be.”

Rihanna is currently in the middle of the North American leg of her Diamonds World Tour, which will head to Africa and then Europe later this month.
